Agricultural Society, after taking 
the chair, also addressed the incet- 
ing stating that the Agricultural 
Society did not intend canvassing 
the business men for advertising 
in the Prize List or for donations 
if the town would carry out the 
Sports, but that the matter would 
be left in the hands of the Sports 
Committee so that they could can- 
vass the town for money to carry 
out their pragramme. The Soc- 


riety would have to take the gate 


receipts but the Sports Committs> 
would have booth ad other priv- 
ileges. IIe also stated that no

could hold any office on the Sports 
Committee.

were gradually pulling out and 
they would like to get clear as 
soon as possible, consequently they 
thought by working together , the 
Sports Committee with the Agri- 
cultural Society, and the Society 
with the Committee, they would 
beth be more successful, 

After some discussion as to 
what kind of a program should be 
followed the matter was left over

Didsbury Scores 
Another Win 


In spite of the cloudy weather 
and a shower the Didsbury ball 
tossers met the Crossfield boosters 
on Friday night last in a Rosebud 
League .basebaH game and pied 
up another win to the tune of 11 
to 4. ° 

The game was pretty much ore 
sided until the fourth inning in 
favor of Didsbury who had pile ‘ 
up 11 runs against Crossfield’s - 
thereby cinching the game. The 
Crossfield team tightened up some- 
what after the fourth but failed to 
score, Both teams suffered from 
the moisture which made the balls 
hard to handle but they stuck with 
the game and finished the full 
nine innings. 

While the game was not a fast 
one Didsbury played a good game 
with few errors and gave the home 
fans much encouragement for 
boasting. There is’ no reason, 
with the fine material which now 
comprises the team, why the Dids- 
bury boys should not keep near the

and the course is now in 
shape and play is going right along. 
There are nine holes

Visitors are always welcome. The 


fee for those who live near the 
town or in adjoining towns is $3 
for gentlemen and $2 for ladies.

that eventually we will have a 
course of which both visitors 
members can be proud of.

This Summer 


ATCHWAY is built on the ‘‘no button” principle. 

The famous “Overlap” does away with all but- 
tons and their bother, adds materially to comfort, 
gives a greater sense of ease and freedom, and is 
blessed by sisters, wives and mothers. 


Hatchway can neither bind, bunch or pull, it holds 
gently to the body with a snug embrace. Comes in 
three Summer weights, costs no more than other 
makes, yet is cheaper to launder, more durable, mere 
practical, and much more comfortable than any other 
underwear yet made.

The Tide Has Turned 
The feeling of discouragement, amounting in some instances almost to ! 
despondency and pessimism, that has prevailed in Canada during recent years | 
is passing away. Evidences of this are seen everywhere, and while there ! 
are still some croakers and prophets of biue ruin their number is steadily and 
more and more rapidly declining, while the.ranks are filling up with Canadians | 
who are openly giving proof of their confidence in the Dominion and its future. 
A study of the Canadian situation, viewed from all angles, provides ample 
support ior this more hopetul feeling, and goes to show that it is based on a | 
solid foundation of facts. ly this country suffers from one great national 
fault it is thut, as a people, we take too short a view and are too impatient for , 
results. We are a young country and are too upt to fall into the errors of 
youth. In anld country like England they do not expect to achieve grent |

Summer Excursions

Canadian Pacific Railway Arrange 
Attractive Tours to East and

Preparations for summer excursions, 
one of the popular features of the 
Canadian Pacific Railway, are well un- 
der way, and give promise of another 
successful year of passenger trafic.

dian Pacific are making ready to open 
their doors on May 15th and June Ist, 
and in conjunction with the holiday 
Beagon the passenger department of 
the railway has ararnged interesting 
circular trips for both Eastern and 
Western Canada. 

Some attractive round trip excur- 
sions have becn mapped out and not 
the least so is the excursion to the 
Pacific Coast on May 15th, and avail- 
able all summer until September 30th. 
Tickets for the Pacifle Coast will be 
on sale from points in Ontarlo west 
of Port Arthur, in Manitoba, Saskat- 
chewan and Alberta, bearing the final 
return limit of October 30th. Stop- 
over privileges are a feature of this 
trip, giving passengers an cpportunity 
of seeing some of Canada’s finest 
scenery and visiting noted mountain 
resorts. Circular tour fares which in- 
clude a trip on the main lines of the 
Canadian Pacific to Reverstoke and 
Sicamous, returning through the Ar- 
row or Okanagan Lakes, are always in 
popular demand for those who love 
the natural beauty that one finds in 
British Columbia. These tickets are

Swollen Joints, 
Quickly Limbered Up 


Rub On Nerviline 


You would be surprised at the won- 
derful action of “Nerviline’ in just 
such cases. Being thin and not an 
ojl preparation, it is able to penetrate 
quickly, and down it sinks into the 
lissues, carrying its healing, soothing 
action wherever it goes. For stop- 
| ping mucular or nerve pain, for eas- 
ing a stiff joint, Nerviline is a com- 
plete success, Pain, soreness, stiff- 
ness all vanish before the magic power 
of this wonderful liniment. Nearly 
fifty years of success proves the merit 
of Nerviline, which is sold everywhere 
in large 35 cent bottles.

[> Billy’s Job, us tu many pusition 
distinction, it is personality that counts It is his mission in life 
to inspire confidence, and tu lure innocent sheep and lamps to their 
destruction with as great alacrity and lightness of guit as if they 
were skipping to the fields of 
taste; he was born for his task Though but two years old he has a 
substantial beard, and long white hoary locks. His mien {s gentle 
and there are no horns visible which might give rise to fatal sus- 
. picions. But in his eyes there 1s an air of command, backed by the 
force of a portly frame, which enables Billy to do what he will with 
the sheep and lambs which come within his ken, and even influences 
calves to keep a straight path In the busy season he saves the 
salaries of five men; in ordinary times he does the work of two 
or three. 

He was three months old when he arrived at the Canadian Pacific 
Stock Yards, Montreal, but he took to the work at once. He followed 
the heels of the men, and while other animals tried at the work had 

\ to be coaxed to labor by rewards of cake and biscuits, Billy needed 
no such spur, but in three months time would glance at the sheep 
comfortably, start off at a cheerful trot and without hesitation the 
doomed animals would surround hiss and happily ascend the winding 
runway to the abattoir nearby... Then at a command he would. go 
back and coax any stragglers, till he had all at hand ready to be 
slaughtered. 

Now to look at Billy, it might seem that he did this work in all 
innocence, and that he was quite unaware that-he had led his ort 
to any harm; but that would be doing an injustice to Billy's mi 
intellect. He leads the flock right to the edge of the platform w ytd 
they are killed, but-then he carefully edges to the wall, keeping as 
far as possible from the danger point till he reaches the only spot 
of safety, then he slides buck from the helpless sheep, wriggles out 
and goes back for another lot. j 

His treachery does not weigh on his spirits, ne is utterly conte 
placent and self-satisfied, impatient to be on the job. f

(Continued) 
CHAPTER Y. 


One of the strangest features of 
western pioneer life on the prairies 
was the rapidity with which news of 
striking significance travelled from 
one sparscly setiled community to an- 
other, and was GissFininated among 


the homesteaders and ranchers in re-! 


mote sections of the lonely prairies. 
With no more rapid means of com- 
munication than the rider of a sturdy 
broncho or Indian pony, ridden by a 
chance passerby, the news was left 
here and there along the trail as he 
passed on his way. From him the 
news Was passed on among the scat- 
tered neighbors with «an efficiency 
that was almost uncanny and weirdly 
suggestive of telepathy, 

Remote as the Fraser ranch was 
from homesteader or rancher neighbor 
-the nearest in any direction aside 
from the Indian reserve, being twenty 
miles away—the homesteader on the 
prairic, the raacher on the hills, north, 
south and east of the mountains, some 
of them torty miles away, were gener: 
ally inforined, within twenty-four 
hours of the abduetion of Mary Fraser 
by “horse rustlers,” Those posses- 
sing the usury of horses, only Jacking 
leadership, were willing and anxious 
to start off in a well-armed posse in 
pursuit of the bandits. At gathering 
points here ang there throughout the 


communities, they assembled — in 
groups to discuss the situation. 
Through Jack of jeadership, definite 


deferred, especially since 
the cooler heads trusted to the efli- 
clency of the North West Mounted 
Police in dealing with the administra- 
tion of law and order, 

Accordingly when the news wis 
brought to one of these gatherings by 
the two visitors from the Fraser ranch 
on their return home, that the girl 
Was reseued by tne stranger, MacRae, 
and her father, and, when ft waa 
learned that they had not only suc- 
ceeded In recovering the stolen horses, 
but had also tuken away in the night 
time, while they Were asleep, the 
horses of the outhiws themselves, their 


action was 


enthusiasm broke all bounds. So 
elated were ther that they decided 
there and then to go the next night 
in a bods, women and all, and cele 
brate the event at the Fraser home, 
fle chiet mode of transportation pos 
sessed by iuost of the people were the 


patient and slow plodding ox teams 
To overcome the disadvantages it 
wis arranged that ail who had horses 
would take their wagons, and place 
at the disposal of their less favour- 
ed ne thors this niere effective means 


of travelling Thos it was arranged 
so that all whe could might be cnabled 


to enjoy the event 
At the Fraser home, while they 
knew that the news of the hidnanpiog

ter had spread among the distant! 


personal interest the people had tak-| 
en in the event. Still less were they , 
aware of the extensive preparations | 
that were being made by them for the | 
jubilation of the coming evening. | 


| While they anticipated that they might | ling these men while together in her} 


| have some visitors, as vaguely hinted 
| by the young men who had been their} 
' guests the previous evening, they did 
{not concern themselves with prepara: | 

lions for the reception of a large | 

crowd, the size of whith they had not 
anticipated, Mrs. Fraser, however, ; 
always a good provider, had early that 
‘morning a large baking well under} 
way to have her larder replenished 
with many delicacies long before the 
weary worn members of the family and 
fuest were called to a late breakfast. 
With the help of Winona she had per- 
formed all the morning household! 
duties, as well as having done the out- | 
side chores, without disturbing those, 
who, owing to their nerve-racking ex- 
‘ periences, were greatly in need of this 
_ long morning rest, 


Retreshed after a long sleep with all 
signs of weariness gone, Mary, Ron- 
'ald and Ma. Frases arose late, partook 
of a hearty breakfast of bacon andj; 
eggs and delicious toast, made from 
Mrs. Fraser’s own light and flaky! 
‘home-made bread, This fare was 
particularly relished by Ronald as an, 
enjoyable change trom the rations of 
‘hard tack which had practically been} 
the only bread he had fared on since 
le had enlisted four years before, His 
jokes about “pork, beans and hard } 
tack” amused both the father and 
daughter as the breakfast proceeded. | 
His reminiscences ef the rebellion | 
campaign interested them and the! 
humor of them afforded considerable | 
amusement. Before brenkfast was | 
over Mary extracted a promise from! 
him that on some other occasion, | 
When they had more time apd leisure, | 
he would give her a more detailed nc- 
count of the interesting events of dhe | 
campaign. After breakfastucting on | 
4 proposal from Mr. Fraser, Ronald! 
uccompaunied him to the corral to look! 
after the horses and let them out to) 
graze, While Mary went to ussist her! 
nother in the house work. H 

lt was late afternoon when Ronald, | 
‘yeturning {rom accompanying Mr.| 
Fraser on a round of his ranch, Jed | 
his horse to the stable and discover 
ed Sergt. Melvin’s horse Ju one of the 
stalls and his saddle hanging on a peg 
nearby. Ronald thought that, ob- 
viously and with intent, he made a) 
hasty return from his pursuit of the 
ouulawe. srom Ronald's standpoint 
he was not a welcome visitor to the 
Fraser ranch at the present time, He 
looked upon his arrival with a certain 
sense of resentment in view of the! 
iniimaie friendship aleady existing | 
between these two people, While as} 
yet he regarded his own ‘chances of | 
winning Mies Fraser's special favor} 
with only a slight degree of assur } 
anee, he resented the dominating per 
sonality of the sergeant thus stepping 
in between them to monopolize her! 
chiel attention. It appeared to him! 
that his attentions to Miss Fraser 
were of a serious nature, but he w 
by no u is satisfied 4% to whether! 
those feelings were reeiprocated — by 
her, Unl he was fully assured that ! 
such wis the case he was not in the! 
mood io eave an open field to his ac 
complished rival. Thus assuming an } 
air of selfiassurance he aceonipanied | 
his host into ghe house, and diplomati- | 
cally extended a cordial greeting to} 
the sergeant, With velled irony he | 
complanented him on his rapid work | 
in 1unning down the outlaws. 


The ninble-wlited sergeant sensing 
the note of irony in the compliment, 


replied: “The same ill-luck followed 
us in the purauit of the outhiws as 
pursued us when we failed to have | 
‘the honor of rescuing Miss Fraser 
from their clutches, We were too, 
late. Four of the men were detain. | 
ed by the men patrolling the Inter- | 


national boundary while endeavouring 
10 innke their escape across on foot. | 
‘The fifth, their leader, known as} 
“Dutch Pete,” a dangerous outlaw, | 
Swith some murders and several gun 
| fights to his credit, and who 1s want 


ed by the American authorities, es- 
caped, at least for the present. By 
outwitting his companions and leaving 
them in the lurch, he made good his

“That is quick work,” replied Ron- ! 
| ald; ‘it reflects considerable credit on} 
the efMficiency of the Mounted Police.” | 

| The sergeant, mollified by this com-; 
| pliment to the force of which he, hin- | 
\ self, was an efficient sub-oflicer, re- | 
plied: “Yes, in so wide a territory a8 | 

| we have to cover it Is sometimes dif: | 
| fleult to capture offenders. 
}one satisfaction, however, in the fact | 
| that, when offenders are cayAured, jus: | 
| tice is administered with dispaich, The | 
| guilty have small chance of escaping 
j due punishment, and, on the other, 
j hand, the innoceat have equal chances | 
{of acquital.” | 
“It is unfortunate that ‘Dutch Pete’, 

as he Js called, was not captured with | 

j the rest o: the gang. The horse that; 
| was left must have been in the brush, ; 
{as I took a good look around to see} 


| that none was left when I cut them) 
| loose. 


But, as the saying goes: ‘The 
Devil looks after his own.’” 

While this passage of words was 
going on between the two men, Mary 
quietly took in the situation, and for 


neighbors, they were not aware of the! the first time it dawned upon her that; 


the motives behind their  rapler 


thrusts might be due to their senti-} 


ments regarding herself. Her in- 
tuitive foresight prompted her to, in 
future, use her feminine tact in hand- 


company. To prevent all possible 
chances of a clash that might prove 
embarrassing, she suggested that, if 
they wish, they might go to their 
rooms and have a wash before dinnet, 
while she went to the kitchen to help 
her mother. 

Ronald at once acted on this sug: 
gestion, but as he reached the foot of 
the stairs he turned round and saw 
that the sergeant was following Mary 
into the kitchen. This act on his 
part proved to be slightly disconcert- 
ing to his equanimity. It was an act 
that to him jndicated unusual fami- 
liarity in the domestic affairs of the 
family, and tended to heighten his 
suspicion of a relationship somewhat 
closer than mere friendship, So it 


was with a heavy heart he ascended 


to his room. 


At the dinner hour Mary took her 
former place beride him at the table. 
In the rivalry of gallantry he had the 
adyuntage over the sergeant, who, 
sitting on the other side of the table, 
could not monopolize her ehief atten- 
tion, as he evidently destred. This 
rivalry developed into a contest of 
polished repartee and wit, mixed with 


j marked attentions to the lady in the! 


case, In this respect the men were 
accomplished antagonists, Both had 
been brought up and trained in sur- 
roundings of educational and social 
advantages, und had accordingly ab 
sorbed their fair share of the polish 
and suavity of such cireles. Yet their 
rivalry was carried on with an ease 
and naturalness of manner that eli 
minated all suggestions of ostentiation 
or bitterness. Both were playing for 
a prize, und both enjoyed playing the 
game, 


While pleasantly engaged Jn con- 
versation some tine after the dinner 
hour, they were startled by loud 


whoops and yells from the direction of 
the Jake road. Hastening to the 
door they saw four men dressed in full 
cowboy regalia in the aet of dis- 
mounting at the Jake shore just in 
front of the house, They had evi- 
dently taken this unique method of 
announcing their arrival, ‘The three 


; went down to where the cowboys had 


taken their stand. and as they ap- 
is the idea, boys?” 
One of them replied: “'Lo sergeant;

‘ Awkwardly touching his hat, the 
| spokesman said: “Yes. ma’m; they are 
\all coming. Me an’ the boys passed 
{three wagons full of homesteaders 
‘ with their missis, and gels, and bact 
lors, too, comin’, ‘They are comin’ to

“That is certainly nice of them. All 
!yight boys tie up your horses and 
| make yourselves at home, Have you 
‘had your suppers?” 

{ “Yes, ma'in, we allu's have our grub 
with us.” 
| As stated by the cowboys there 
were others. They proved to be only 
la small advance guard of a like pum- 
erous company that straggled on in 
' groups from time to time, to be fol- 
| lowed before the dusk of evening, by 
‘wagon loads of mixed companics. 
They came thus for many miles to pay 


their respects and express from the 


kindliness of their hearts their joyful! 


thankfulness for the rescue of the girl, 
though a stranger, to them trom the 
‘dangers that had encompassed her. 
| They came under great difiiculties for 
many miles to rejoice with this fumily 
in their good fortune.” The large 
number that had gathered by dusk was 
, a surprise to them all, One wonder- 
ed where they all could) have come 
‘from in a land so sparsely settled. 
‘Some were ranchers who had made 
) their homes among the hills like them: 
selves; others were homesteaders 
trom the open prairies, Soine, only 
a few, were married men with their 
‘wives aud families, mere children; 
{others married men with their faml- 
lies still in the east, and some 
married men Most of them had 
made, or were making, their homes on 
the lonely prairies, where, with the 
: optimism of all western plone érs, they 
‘ploughed deep furrows in the virgin 
/ soil, from which in time they were to 
reap rich harvests upon which their 
hopes were building their happy and 
prosperous homes of the future, Thus, 
this self-invited crowd, besides desir- 
ing to do honor to their brother 
raneher in their joyful reunion, en 
joyed the anticipation of the Ine stim 
jable pleasure that would be afforded 
them of passing a few fleeting bours 


in social Intercourse with thetr hu- 
;man kind. Inured to hardships as 
they were, they heeded not the 


shocks of thei. unyiedding seats; as 
on their tedlous journey they had cov- 
ered, on rough trail, the many wiles 
that separated their lonely home- 
steads from this present gathering 
, place, Uppermosi in their minds was 
the thought of the pleasure that this 
/ unusual oceasion meant to them; a

[Rosebud Hotel. 


Receives License 


The long drouth of eight years 
which has caused those who like 
a glass of foaming beer, without 
making a criminal of themselves, 
to hang out their tongues, has at 
last been broken and the Rosebud 
Ilotel opened up on Tuesday noon 
with a line of draught and bottled 
beer. 

Mrs. Harmer, the manager, 
states that the license was tele- 
graphed down to them on Tuesday 
morning and the license itself ar- 
rived at Tuesday noon, 

They are following the same 
proceedure as in Calgary: selling 
an & oz. glass of beer for 10c. 
‘The Rosebud has complied with 
all the government regitlations in 
regard to selling and have fixed uy 
a sitting room with tables where 
the old soft drink dispensary was 
established. 

Now that the new order of the 
liquor business has been put into 
force it is a matter of both those 
who indulge and those who dis: 
pense it to observe the decencies
